for every god-awful off-shot line we've gotten from Mattel, all I ever here is "well the main target market is kids" which I get. But Zombie figures? Sure kids would like them, but parents aren't going to buy them - so who is this line for? Yeah we like zombies, but if this line clutters the shelves then it's such a waste. What's different about Paige from her regular release though?

Slight blood/cuts, lighter pigment, possibly actually more accurate to her real skin tone I maintain my opinion that Paige should have more zombie scratches/cuts

The question I have is, can that elbow swivel as well as the traditional bend? If so, I wouldn't mind if they started using those a bit more. These appear to be the swivel and pivot joints. Looks like they still have the bicep cut too. One strong advantage if this style of joint is that we will be able to bring the hands together since the bicep can be turned back to facing forward again. The big biceps on, say, John Cena would prohibit movement. They definitely are. I have Basic 61 Natalya and it has the new elbow joint which pivots around.

If they continue to use them in the traditional skintones, I would be buying plenty of new figures to convert. My m$m badly needs these to pull off the million dollar dream.

Looks nice. That Triple H looks amazing. And I love the torn quad thrown in there all nonchalant. They shoulda reserved that detail for the future Nash Zombie figure... Those figs are awesomely disgusting!

These turned out really cool. Initially I just wanted Bray, but will probably get Ambrose, Taker, Paige, HHH and another Bray lol
